Le cinéma de l'horreur

Côté, Denis, 1954-


En discutant avec son père qui vient d'apprendre la destruction d'une église où son grand-père était projectionniste lorsqu'il avait vingt ans, Thomas se replonge dans l'univers de son aïeul décédé afin de comprendre sa passion pour le cinéma d'horreur. En fouillant dans de vieilles boîtes, il trouve, en plus de certains écrits personnels de son grand-père et des livres d'occultisme, l'affiche du film "La créature venue du néant" et décide de l'installer sur un mur de sa chambre. Rapidement, des phénomènes étranges se produisent; Thomas se sent attiré par l'affiche et le monstre qui s'y trouve, le son du thérémine se fait entendre durant la nuit et l'adolescent se sent de plus en plus fatigué. Il décide d'aller jeter un coup d'oeil au sous-sol de l'église où son grand-père travaillait il y a une soixantaine d'années avant que le lieu ne soit démoli, mais sur place, les choses prennent une tournure inattendue...

Le garçon sorcière

Ostertag, Molly.


Traduction de: The witch boy. "Dans la culture du jeune Aster, treize ans, toutes les filles sont élevées pour devenir des sorcières et les garçons, des métamorphes. Toute personne qui ose contrevenir à cette tradition est exclue. Malheureusement pour Aster, il demeure incapable de se métamorphoser... et il est toujours aussi fasciné par la sorcellerie, bien qu'elle lui soit formellement interdite. Lorsqu'un danger mystérieux menace les autres garçons, Aster sait qu'il peut aider... avec la sorcellerie. Avec les encouragements de Charlie, une nouvelle amie excentrique, Aster se laisse convaincre d'exercer ses talents de sorcière. Mais il aura besoin d'encore plus de courage pour sauver sa famille... et en réalité, se sauver lui-même."--
